[People News] In Jiangyou City, Sichuan Province, a 14-year-old female student was bullied and abused by a group of peers. She suffered various forms of humiliation, including being beaten, forcibly stripped, repeatedly slapped, kicked, and forced to kneel. On August 2, a video of the abuse surfaced and sparked public outrage. In reality, bullying incidents in Chinese schools are rampant—the case in Jiangyou is just the tip of the iceberg.

Due to inaction by the Jiangyou public security authorities, public anger flared again. On August 4, thousands of local residents gathered in front of the city government to protest and show support, demanding justice. The girl’s parents knelt before government officials, pleading for a peaceful resolution. But how were they answered?

In the early morning of August 5, the authorities dispatched a large police force to suppress the protests. Police beat protesters with batons, sprayed pepper spray, and arrested people who sang the national anthem during their protest. They even locked the detainees in cages used for transporting pigs.

At the same time, the CCP authorities deployed signal-blocking vehicles to restrict internet access and deleted related videos and search terms online.

In fact, the bullying of the Jiangyou girl is just one of many similar incidents that have repeatedly occurred across China.

On April 1, 2017, in a middle school in Luxian County, Luzhou City, Sichuan Province, a second-year male student named Zhao Xin was mysteriously found dead outside the school dormitory in the early morning, with multiple bruises on his body. Local residents suspected that he was beaten to death by a group of students—possibly children of officials—after he refused to hand over money. The boy’s family sought answers from the government but was placed under house arrest by the police. The incident caused a major uproar online, and citizens took to the streets to demand justice for the victim—only to be met with brutal suppression by the authorities.

In December 2017, a serious school bullying incident occurred in Yunnan. Two third-grade boys were held down by five classmates who removed their pants and poured boiling water on their genitals, leaving horrific injuries.

When the incident came to light, the school principal initially claimed the children were just “playing around” and refused to take responsibility. Eventually, to quell public anger, the principal and a deputy principal were dismissed.

On February 6, 2023, in Hudian Township, Pingqiao District, Xinyang City, Henan Province, another youth bullying incident took place. A boy was surrounded and beaten by a group of peers. Online sources indicated the victim was a sixth-grade student at Hudian Township Central School, and the perpetrators were former students of the same school.

In the 2-minute, 23-second video, a boy in a blue shirt was slapped, violently kicked twice, and hit in the head. Toward the end, a boy in black kicked the blue-shirted boy to the ground, and the others rushed in to punch and kick him repeatedly. While attacking, the bullies cursed and threatened him: “Next time I’ll use a stun baton on you!” In just the first minute of the video, the boy was slapped 13 times and kicked 11 times.

When reporters from Chinese media repeatedly called Hudian Township Central School, no one answered. A staff member from the Legal Education and Safety Section of the Xinyang Municipal Education and Sports Bureau responded in a phone interview, saying: “It’s inconvenient to disclose the situation, as it’s still being handled.” A Pingqiao District government official stated, “I only know the police are involved. As for the rest, it hasn’t been reported to us, so I’m not sure.”

On September 3, 2024, a middle school in Guangdong Province issued a "pledge form" requiring students not to film or photograph school bullying incidents. The document even included signatures from students and parents, dated September 2, 2024.

This pledge drew strong criticism from internet users. In response, on September 4, the Puning City Education Bureau finally reacted and adjusted the policy, replacing the pledge with a rule banning students from bringing mobile phones onto campus, citing the reason: “to avoid affecting student learning.”

On September 11, 2024, in Jinan City, Shandong Province, a female student reported long-term abuse by a male classmate who had recently transferred and sat next to her. She claimed he used sharp objects like iron awls to stab her hundreds of times, with wounds reaching deep into the muscle.

The boy also forced her to eat paper, pencil lead, erasers, and even poured unknown substances from the science lab into a cup and made her drink it.

According to the victim, when the boy first transferred, he boasted that his father knew the school principal, and that in his previous school, he had broken a classmate’s bones—yet got away with it by just paying compensation.

Her parents posted videos online and revealed that the homeroom teacher was aware of the bullying but did nothing. Instead, the teacher blamed the girl, telling her, “Don’t provoke others.”

Because the school failed to act, the family reported the case to the police. However, the public security bureau claimed there was “insufficient evidence” and refused to file the case. The CCP’s official response was also that the situation “did not meet the standard of bullying.”

The root cause of all this lies inseparably with the Chinese Communist Party (CCP).

First, the CCP has destroyed all traditional culture, promoting falsehood, evil, and struggle (“假、惡、鬥”). This has led to a violent and hostile society where people harm one another, and even children are affected.

Second, the CCP is rife with cronyism and corruption. When incidents occur, the goal isn’t justice, but protecting those with powerful backers or deep pockets. This often stokes public anger and escalates otherwise minor incidents.

When situations spiral out of control, the CCP responds with even greater violent suppression. This cycle repeats endlessly—ultimately provoking the masses to rise up and overthrow this wicked regime.

Not just in China, but in every communist country, short-lived regimes are the inevitable result of the Communist Party’s falsehood, evil, and struggle. Their own misdeeds are the cause of their downfall—the curse and fate of evil communism.
